Middlesex County YAM 2019


It was hot in the George Street Playhouse! The 2019 Middlesex County Youth Art Month Exhibit shined as we celebrated our sixteenth year in artistic style! Proud students, families, and friends were full of smiles as photographs were snapped to celebrate the many artistic talents from around the county. A special acknowledgement was given to Metuchen teacher, Margo Banner, and her student, Alexandra Lipshutz, by State chair Kristy Lopez for creating the winning flag design sponsored by Sargent Art. Also, Shayna Fernandez from South River High School was presented with the “Random Artist of the Week” plaque and certificate from Artsonia by the county chairs. Student participants were acknowledged with a certificate and drawing set donated by General Pencil. 


Hosted on a Tuesday night with over a two hundred guests, another successful year commenced to a standing-room-only crowd because of the hard work and dedication of the educators and students of Middlesex County. Eighty-four student participants, kindergarten through twelfth, from twenty-six teachers from Carteret, Colonia, East Brunswick, Edison, Metuchen, New Brunswick, North Brunswick, Piscataway, Sayreville, and South River exhibited artwork in various mediums. Thank you to the hard working and dedicated educators, students, families, principals, and community members of Middlesex County!
